[quote=Anonymous]I moved my position to part-time which was fine at first, but then it crept back up to 40+ hours/week even though I technically was only supposed to be working 25. And yet, I was still getting paid part-time wages. So I quit. I freelance for myself when I have time. I don't regret it because in order to keep advancing in my career as it was, I would have to manage large teams of people and I have zero interest (nor much skill) in doing that. I like doing the actual technical work better. Kids are still early elementary so we'll see what I decide. I kind of want to pivot to something more creative and less lucrative, but hopefully I can gain some traction because freelancing allows my spouse to lean in and make more money. All this also means we have a pretty relaxed lifestyle and I spend lots of time with my kids. Helps they are in school too.[/quote]
